Dynaudio 1.3SE vs. JM Reynaud Trente

I currently own a pair of Dynaudio 1.3SE's and really like them. Due to room constrictions, I can place them only 16" away from the rear wall but they still sound really good except with bass heavy music when the bass will be too strong. Would the Trente's work better with placement close to the rear wall? I have heard the Reynaud Twin and thought it sounded very good so I like attributes of both speakers. How do the Trente's stack up to the Dynaudio's? My room is roughly 12x15.

Do not play bass heavy music! Seriously, it would be better if you can use a SUBwoofer and the subwoofers x-over to relieve Dynaudio from reproducing Bass altogether. I really doubt that ANY speaker wouldn't sound bass-heavy in situation described. Invest in good subwoofer and you will eliminate most of the bass problems and will increase the performance of your current speakers by gratifiying notch.

The reason I was thinking about the Trente is because I believe they are front ported. Shouldn't a front ported speaker help out with this problem?

I used to have both speakers. The Trente might be better with placement but the Dynaudio 1.3SE is a much better sounding speaker. Just use the supplied plugs if the bass is too much or use some kind of room treatment.
